      In 1924 there were many changes for the Young family.
      Between 1912-1924 Henry & Frances continued to work with their son Charles and daughter Gertrude on the family farm located on lots #26 and Lot #28 Concession 4 in Goderich Township on Cutline Road near Porter's Hill between Highway #21 and Holmesville, Ontario.

      Then Gertrude B Young married Clarence Miller on 20 Aug 1924 moved to their farm near Seaforth, Ontario.

      Charles S Young married Alta Glazier on 18 Nov 1924 continued to farm the Young homestead farm.

      In 1924 Henry & Frances "officially" retired from the farm after Charles S Young & Alta Glazier married.
      Henry & Frances retired full time to their retirement home at 28 Trafalgar St., Goderich, Ontario.

      This home was built as the Cornerstone reads "Glen Eagle 1912". Unknown the significance of "Glen Eagle"
      Charles & Alta remained on the farm until 1947-48, when they moved to 34 Gloucester Terrace, Goderich into the red brick house owned by Louis Wild, located next to the Huron County Jail (Gaol).

She became interested in genealogy in the 1970s, and passed the torch -- together with documents and photos -- to me circa 2000.This site would not exist today if not for her work back then. Thank you Mom.

I would also like to thank Peter Etue, who maintains the Joseph Wild branch of this site. Peter's contributions over the years have been invaluable and are much appreciated.

Let us praise our ancestors

Let us praise our ancestors, illustrious men in their successive generations.

The Lord has created an abundance of glory and displayed his greatness from earliest times.

Some...were intelligent advisors and uttered prophetic oracles.

Others directed the people by their advice, by their understanding of the popular mind, and by the wise words of their teaching.

Others were rich and powerful, living peacefully in their homes.

All these were honored by their contemporaries and were the glory of their day...

Here is a list of generous men, whose good works have not been forgotten.

In their descendants there remains a rich inheritance born of them.

--Ecclesiasticus 44:1-14

Mom's genealogy work

My mother did her genealogy research back in the pre-internet era. She summarized her results in a 1983 typed document which she entitled "Let Us Praise Our Ancestors". The contents of this document formed the basis of this website and are shared here in her memory and honor.
